A Massachusetts bar made masks optional ONE night a week... and somehow that turned into apologies, accusations of ableism, and a three-and-a-half-hour community meeting with a therapist. Yes, really. In the year of our Lord 2026. Every detail of the drama at the Last Ditch bar in Greenfield, Massachusetts somehow gets more and more ridiculous. From its payment-optional program to a customer base that apparently cannot be appeased, this story had me asking how we’re all living in the same country. If this bar is competing to be the wokest in America, I think they might be winning.
Fauci's own journal proved he recommended closing the schools. Then he said under oath that he didn't. A doctor who questioned him from day one breaks it all down. In this episode of The Brief, host Shabbos Kestenbaum sits down with Dr. Houman Hemmati — ophthalmologist, biotech entrepreneur, frequent Fox News guest, and one of the earliest public voices questioning COVID lockdown policy — for a comprehensive, evidence-based reckoning with everything that went wrong. Dr. Hemmati breaks down why the concept of "America's doctor" was itself the original sin — the idea that one person could be omniscient, infallible, and immune from questioning. He explains his own background in gain-of-function research (conducted as a teenager at UCLA), why the lab leak theory was always the most scientifically logical explanation, and what Occam's razor tells us about where Covid came from.
Dr. Anthony Fauci is back on Capitol Hill as senators question him about a newly released, more than 1,000-page diary recovered from his government work computer, including entries on his celebrity status, early private discussions that COVID-19 may have originated in a lab, and his behind-the-scenes handling of the pandemic. Watch the hearing live.
